    Can anyone provide me a high quality lossless rip of mardi grass, please? I really want to participate but I just found out that in my cover of "two" is the wrong record for some reason. I can't be arsed to go through my whole collection to find the record.

    I have it now, thanks anyway. I had to jump through some hoops to get this nice FLAC CD rip. If anyone is in need, just drop me a pm.

    Sadly, I have to go from "maybe" to "definitely not" due to the death of my Pro Tools setup. If we ever do another one, though, I'm down.

    Ahh shit dude. I was wondering about that when you posted the other thread... R.I.P. the mBox.

    could we please use another abbreviation for "Soul Strut"? The one used in this thread title looks irritating and almost turns my stomach.
    For example "SoSt" or something...

    Damn son, next you'll be getting upset anytime there's a mention of Joy Division, New Order or U2.




    Actually come to think of it, most of us get upset at the mention of U2.

    Yeah, I'm bummed about it--I was hoping I'd be able to get everything moved and set up again quickly soI'd still have a little time to knock a track out, but it's just not in the cards. But at least I have a shiny new studio setup to look forward to so I'll be good to go for the next one!

    McDoom! Bapt!

    Two thumbs up to the Mardi Gras beatoff.
    +1 in favour of the idea of anonymous presentation of the contributions.
    Wish I could participate myself, but I'm too busy with my 3 month old daughter right now.

    Hey Guys,

    I'm done with my track and I'm listening to it as I type. To whom do we submit them?

    Peace,

    Big Stacks from Kakalak

    I guess The_Non as he seems to be running things and it was his idea.

    I thought I'd set up a soundcloud page so people can submit to that. That should keep it kinda anon.

    http://soundcloud.com/mardigrasbeatcomp

    I'll send the login to The_Non and he can send it out to all participants / or those who pm him when they're done.

    And I apologize to The_Non or whoever is going to handle beat submissions, if my anonymous suggestion is too much of a pain in the ass.

    If it turns out that making the beats anonymous isn't worth it, feel free to scrap it. I just wanna hear some Strut gems.

    Nah, I think it's a good idea & it's not too much bother.

    Previous beat threads have been a bit more relaxed, in a 'let's see what you can do with this' way. But if people feel the need to make it a competition of sorts, anon is the best way to do it.

  • doomdoom 305 Posts
    sounds like a good idea!

    id be among those who start making the beat 1 hour before deadline, and sending it it 1 second before the deadline.. would be cool if the submitted tracks were presented after the deadline.. otherwise we know that the first might be bigstacks, and the last one might be me etc. we need more mystique! and i dont want to hear other beats before im done with my shit. haha

  • OkemOkem 4,617 Posts
    As long as submissions are kept to PMs, or if everyone involved just has the login they can upload on the d/l, then we wont know who's done in what order. bigstacks would just need to wait for one or two others to upload and you wont know who's who.

    If you want to keep it super hush hush, it's quite easy to change the url to something else, so only those participating will know it until deadline day.

    I've never really posted much but I'm down to submit something if it's cool. Mainly though I just want to hear what cats are going to come up with.
